2 Samuel 

from the American Standard Version 

"The Books of Samuel (Hebrew: Sefer Sh'muel ISO *7N1BW) are part of the 
Tanakh (part of Judaism's Hebrew Bible] and also of the Christian Old 
Testament. The work was originally written in Hebrew, and the Book(s] 
of Samuel originally formed a single text, as they are often considered 
today in Hebrew bibles. Together with what is now referred to as the 
Book(s] of Kings, the translators who created the Greek Septuagint 
divided the text into four books, which they named the Books of the 
Kingdoms. In the Latin Vulgate version, these then became the Books of 
the Kings, thus 1 and 2 Samuel were referred to as 1 and 2 Kings, with 3 
and 4 Kings being what are called 1 and 2 Kings by the King James Bible 
and its successors." (Summary by Wikipedia)
